Windows Depth is not working correctly

[izark]

Hi there.
I really don´t know what is happening.
An instance of 0 depth is drawn below instances of 200 depth. This only happens when these 200-depth instances have been created through instance_copy(). To be sure of the depths of these instances during runtime, another object has this code in the draw_end event : with all draw_text(x , y , string(depth)), and I can see the 0 depth instance passing below the 200 depth instances.

Those instances don't have a draw event, nor draw_end event, and there is not an external object drawing them. I have checked everything and I don´t find an explanation. All instances are placed on predefined layers.
Edit: I am not using instance_copy, I copy manually variables instead, and now it is working.

I have the same problem.
So i create the new instance instead of the copy function.

here is another copy function bug:http://bugs.yoyogames.com/view.php?id=27737

All instances are placed on predefined layers.

Are the instances on the SAME layer?

I've never used 2.0, but my understanding was that depth is like pages in a book, and layers is like a stack of books. So yes, page 1 of volume 1 is above page 200 of volume 1, but page 1 of volume 2 is BELOW page 200 of volume 1.

This problem still persists. After cloning an instance with 'instance_copy' the 'depth' is not working at all.
